Rendering of Fourth of July Street Festival for Sacramento Project
The rendering shown below illustrates a proposed mixed use project for Land Park, a neighborhood located in Sacramento, CA. The rendering is in the color pencil technique and is by Jeffrey Michael George, Architectural Illustrator. This illustration is one of many Jeffrey has done for many design projects in and around Sacramento for local architects and developers. This view shows the proposed re-use of a warehouse building as a grower’s market in the background, with the street being used as a venue for a Fourth of July Street Festival. Although not yet built, the project may be moving forward in the near future. Jeffrey works with many San Francisco Bay Area, Sacramento, Peninsula, and South Bay architectural firms as a freelance illustration consultant to bring their designs to life in the form of full color perspective renderings.
Color Pencil Rendering of Interior Lobby of New University of Santa Clara Admissions Building
The color rendering below is in color pencil and pastel by Jeffrey Michael George, architectural illustrator. This 3D visualization in perspective was commissioned by the South Bay architectural firm of Steinberg Architects of San Jose, a longstanding client of Jeffrey’s illustration business. The drawing shows Steinberg’s proposed design for a new Admissions and Enrollment Building located at the University of Santa Clara in the South Bay, about 40 miles south of San Francisco.

My First Marathon: San Francisco June 16, 2013
On Father’s Day at 4 AM I got up after getting practically zero sleep, and started getting prepped for my first marathon run in San Francisco….The night before, we had a great meal in a little Chinatown restaurant that we used to go to years ago….I checked my blood sugar just for the heck of it before I went to sleep–and to my shock it was 331-must have been something I ate (hence the sleepless night)….We stayed at a little boutique hotel on Nob Hill, where I started walking down to the race starting point at Market Street and the Embarcadero about 4:45 AM in the dark….Made it to the starting line in plenty of time, shivering but knowing as soon as the race started, that would all end….What transpired from there was a truly memorable experience….A Spectacular Running Tour of some of the most beautiful areas of the most beautiful American City (in my opinion)….Having only run 20 miles on my longest training run ( and not feeling like running another 6.2 miles afterward), I held back the first half of the race so I would have the best chance of finishing….Once we got to the Mission District and Miles 21, 22, I knew I could do it….And I did–I even had a finish line “kick” to finish the race! In what was my first (and most likely my last) full marathon, I am happy to say I ran the entire race without walking, and finished it in flying colors….There is a great satisfaction in running a full marathon–and I will always recall that feeling fondly….
Rendering of Cottages at Rincon del Rio near Auburn, CA
The image below is an architectural rendering done recently by Jeffrey Michael George, architectural illustrator. These illustrations are done before construction begins on a project, using the architect’s design drawings as a starting point. Jeffrey first builds a 3D CAD model, and shows the client view options, from which the perspective view is selected for the rendering. With that chosen view angle, Jeffrey then develops the architectural rendering by hand as traditional artwork. When complete in color, a digital scan is made of the image, and sent to the architect for their use in promoting the project. This image shows the design work of McCamant & Durrett Architects of Nevada City, CA. The project is an age-in-place retirement community called Rincon del Rio, currently planned for a site near Auburn, CA. The engineer is SCO Engineering of Grass Valley, and the developer/owner is Young Enterprises of Auburn, CA. Jeffrey provides many illustrations for architects in San Francisco, San Jose and South Bay, Bay Area Peninsula, East Bay, Sacramento, and Sierra Foothills of Northern California, bringing their designs to life in the form of architectural renderings.
